1878-P VAM-131B Die Scratch Thru RT

Comments:1- The typically encountered V131B shows fairly extensive reverse die cracking especially at TED-wing-S; however, the cracking does not displace the field so it does not warrant classification as a sub-variety per LVA. EDS specimens do exist for the variety with one attributed by ANACS as VAM-131B EDS AU 55. The EDS coin does NOT exhibit the reverse die cracking and the coin has reflective surfaces on both sides.2- This obverse shared with VAM 195A and VAM 210A
